ANAHEIM -- A California appeals court says Disneyland Resort can keep a ban on Segways at its parks.

The Orange County Register (http://bit.ly/18zZVXk ) says the court ruled last week against a woman with muscular dystrophy who sued for discrimination four years ago because she couldn't use a Segway at Disneyland.

The 4th District Court of Appeal says Disney showed that the stand-up, two-wheeled scooter was unsafe to use inside the crowded Anaheim park.

Disney has since developed its own four-wheel standing scooter for use in the park.
